LOVE this record.

Chill, nice, good

Me and my mate used to drink in the same pub him in Chorlton. He’s reyt grumpy when you ask him to song you a song. Indie!

Melankolisk musik som inte fastnar

Nice and melodic

Not for me

Quite peculiar, very interesting, pretty chill.

Better than I would’ve thought. Had a Pink Floyd Meddle feel

Powerful mellow anthems of the 70's

Nice to listen to.

Dreamy magical fantasy PS Meant to rate Joy Division 3/5

Enjoyable album. Group new to me

This is the first record for an artist that I had not listened to before. I am pretty sure I saw his name before but had never listened. His style of indie pop mixed with an overwhelming sadness reminds me a lot of Elliot Smith. Apparently he played a tribute gig for him at some point. Overall I thought this record was good with a lot of interesting sounds that I wasn’t expecting. It is a bit long-winded however. Favorite track: Another Pearl Least favorite track: Say It Again

I like the flow of the album. Overall pretty delightful.

Very familiar with this. Like it!

This is what Zach Braff dreams he sounds like.

Super chill album to listen to

Cool indie album. Fave songs: The Shining, Epitaph

I liked this. It grew on me with several plays. Nice.

Some great songs, some ok songs, but definitely gonna check out other albums

Blaaaah. Why is this vital? It's...fine? Nothing about it inspires. Not a great start.

Glad I know about him but this album didn't really resonate with me

What a record.

Rather unusual thing, but not at all bad.

An often good, occasionally great cross section of where indie rock was coming from and going at the turn of the millennium, featuring one of the best songs ever, "Once Around The Block," right smack dab in the middle.

Arrangements were great but vocal style was something I didn’t care for.

It's not really what I go for but it not bad to put on in the background if I'm working or cleaning the house. Very low key but well done. It does bring across the feel of early 2000's music to me.

Pleasant surprise. Full album not as depressing as first song.

Depressing, even for me

Although only just over 1h, the album dragged on forever with songs that are just nothing special

Emo indie ish

Once around the block is one of my favorite favorites. Never would’ve guessed the rest of his would be this good

Pretty good.

Nice background music

Sopii varsin hyvin työpäivän taustamusaksi. Pitää kuunnella laajemmin tuotantoa kun on aikaa.

Boring. Generic. Shouldn’t be on the list.

its pretty good. terrible album cover though. A little dated too.

This Song literally tickles my ears when using headphones! Mostly pleasant album- some of it gets creepy.

Uma das melhores surpresas até agora. Mistura de Surfjan com Elliott Smith. Nada absurdamente original ou empolgante, mas muito agradável e interessante

Well. That's just ... really boring, innit? Shame.

He's like an Elliott Smith who can sing, which is nice, but there's not a lot here that grabs the attention in a positive way. Just okay. Best track: The Shining

Pretty good. Will listen again. Fusion of a lot of genres folk-country, hip-hop, etc.

I like some of the riffs, but the overall sound and feeling doesn't appeal to me really

Ihan ok taustalle rentoiluhetkiin, mut sitä kamaa nyt maailmasta löytyy

Singer songwriter mixed with a little 90s grunge. I own "One Plus One is One" but never looked past that. This is great (closer to a 3.5) but there's some fat that could've been trimmed. Favorite tracks: "Fall in a River", "Another Pearl", "Disillusion"

1999: Everybody's Stalking, Once Around The Block

Liked first 5 songs then the transition was just completely off, not cohesive, at the 9th song it got better. 10-13 were not good. The rest of the album was nice.

This was alright, I don't really have a strong opinion about this album.

Not quite my tempo.

Very peaceful album that has an awesome flow.
